Bayswater Town Centre Structure Plan

The City has prepared a Structure Plan for the Bayswater town centre to provide a framework for the future development and revitalisation of the town centre.

NEXT STEPS

Thank you to those people who provided a submission on the draft Bayswater Town Centre Structure Plan; the consultation period has now closed. The City has considered all of the submissions received and presented the submissions, along with any recommended modifications to the Structure Plan to Council for consideration.

The Planning and Development Committee, at a meeting held on 8 May 2018, decided to adopt the structure plan with modifications.

The structure plan documentation and modifications are now with the Western Australia Planning Commission (WAPC) for final endorsement.

Bayswater Station Upgrade

Bayswater Station is destined to become an important transport hub with both the Forrestfield-Airport Link and the proposed Morley-Ellenbrook rail line connecting to Perth's rail network at Bayswater. It has also influenced the Bayswater Town Centre Structure Plan.

Consultation on the State Government's planned major upgrade for the station is underway. The consultation commenced with two drop in sessions for the community and an online survey during 2018. METRONET also consulted with the Bayswater Community Advisory Group (CAG) on the concept design for the station precinct. Further consultation will occur during the course of 2019 to finalise the detail design of the Bayswater Train Station. METRONET is currently asking for expressions of interest from community members interested in being involved in the Bayswater CAG.

Following Council's adoption of the Structure Plan in May 2018 it was forwarded to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) for final approval. In light of the Bayswater Train Station Upgrade project, the WAPC deferred making a decision on the structure plan until METRONET had completed the development of the Station Precinct Concept Plan.

The City understands that the Structure Plan is now scheduled to be considered at the Statutory Planning Committee of the WAPC on Tuesday 19 February 2019.

Approximately 180 detailed submissions were received during the advertising period, which the City is currently considering. One of the most frequent comments received was that the progression of the Structure Plan should be put on hold until there is more certainty around what is happening with the planning and upgrading of the Bayswater Train Station.

One of the outcomes from the engagement process is that there is benefit in placing the progression of the Structure Plan on hold to ensure it is consistent with the planning of the Bayswater Train Station. In light of this, the City is postponing the preparation of a report to Council on the matter until mid-2018.
